Is the U.S. heading toward a historic breaking point in 2026? WindRock’s Brett Rentmeester argues that America is no longer in a normal business cycle, but instead entering a Fourth Turning–style crisis driven by debt saturation, collapsing affordability, and a loss of trust in key institutions. He joins Maggie Lake and explains why real wages have stagnated since the 1970s, how essential costs have become unaffordable, and why the debt-based monetary system created in 1913 is reaching its limits. Brett also warns that despite market strength, the top 10 AI-driven stocks now make up nearly 40% of the S&P 500, revealing deep underlying fragility. Finally, he shares his framework for navigating this unstable era: “One foot in the old system, and one foot in the new.”
